Drawing for Dwelling -Unripe Blonde
Illustration
I'm sharing with you another illustration I have created for Doug Karr's novel DWELLING. This image is based on one of the characters in Chapter 1, she is described as 'an unripe blonde'. The image has been sketched out in pencil then drawing ink applied with a dip pen.
Layers of water and ink are built up with a brush to suggest areas of shadow and light. Finer details are drawn in using a dip pen and drawing ink.
An unripe blonde leaned against the doorway as Dorian Teasdale, the picture of maturity at twice her age, slipped his key in the six-story walkup lock.
The drunken artist dragged the blonde into the foyer from the street. Her eyes met Mioko's sign as Dorian struggled to fit his key into the second door lock.

Literature is the depiction or mirror of life. Your depiction of the unripe blonde is top-notch. This is creativity at its best @opheliafu
It’s so amazing how your incredible imagination syncs so closely to my own image of these characters and events, and to see you bring them to visual life is crazy exciting!
